Interventional Radiology is an exciting subspecialty within radiology which utilizes minimally invasive image guided procedures to both diagnose and treat disease. Image guided treatments are widely performed by interventional radiologists, from cancer treatment to trauma, Sepsis control to reproductive health, emergency and elective procedures all performed though radiological guidance and minimally invasive techniques. 

Interventional Radiology The Basics, this is a two day course aimed at radiology trainees in the first three years of training and junior doctors. The course has been running for over 15 years but has been refreshed in conjunction with the 2021 RCR curriculum for core trainees and in view of the 2021 IR subspecialty curriculum.

This is delivered through a combination of lectures, tutorials and workshops with the focus on hands on learning.
